Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

MODERATORS
The ozone layer one is still a work in progress. CFCs were banned, but HCFCs replaced them; they were less likely to make it up to the ozone layer in the first place, but did more damage once they got there. HCFCs have been/are being replaced, but many of the refrigerants and blowing agents that we currently use do damage the ozone layer, and replacements haven't been found yet. BUT!, the point is, they're still working on solving the problems that were created a hundred years ago, and still making progress.
China seemed to have continued using the banned cfc's. Chemical tracing satellites have picked up heavy concentrations over a couple areas there about 5 years ago.
After being called out on it, they did put a stop to it. They claim they were from illegal factories.
Ah, go figure! I should have looked that one up as well. Glad to hear they're still working on it, maybe I'll go read up on it more. Thanks for the info!
